GLOBAL OUTLOOK

1. SAVE ACT DIES AGAIN – Thanks to four Republican Senators, efforts by the GOP to pass the SAVE Act failed once again. The Act would make Voter ID mandatory. Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) attempted to add it as an amendment to DHS funding bills, but the provision failed thanks to four GOP no votes.
2. SENATE GOP FUNDS DHS, KEEPS TRUMP LAWFARE HOPES ALIVE – By a vote of 49-50, a vote to eliminate the formation of a future fund for lawfare victims of the Biden administration failed. The Senate GOP also managed to pass $70 billion for immigration enforcement funding through the DHS. The Senate engaged in an all-night voting session that lasted into the early morning hours.
3. DEMOCRATS PASS UKRAINE WAR FUNDING BILL IN HOUSE – The U.S. House has passed a funding bill for the Ukraine War in the amount of $18 billion. The bill passed 226-195 with the help of 18 Republicans who crossed party lines to help the Democrats pass the funding bill.
4. ICE HAS HAD ENOUGH IN DELANEY HALL – After days of assaults on an ICE detention center in New Jersey called Delaney Hall, ICE officers were given the green light to execute mass arrests, which they did, ending interference with operations.

Democrat leaders, including the Governor of New Jersey, continue to vilify ICE in the public, which seems to often be followed up by a round of violent actions by “protesters” who are well coordinated and well-funded. Evidence mounts that these are professional agitators who go from one “protest” to the next on someone’s dime.

5. RESTORE DELIVERS CHILLING GROOMING GANG TESTIMONY – Restore Britian’s Rupert Lowe delivered a heartbreaking report on the national tragedy of the Pakistani child rape gang epidemic. Reform UK responded by calling the report foolish, while the other political parties called it irrelevant and pointless.

The testimonies reveal police compliance, and even participation the child rape gangs, and a barrage of testimonies on how the fear of the police even appearing to look racist led them to ignore, and also harass, the victims and their parents.

6. TRUMP CHOOSES FANNIE MAC MAN TO REPLACE GABBARD – “I am appointing the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, and Chairman of Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, William J. Pulte, to serve as Acting Director of National Intelligence. William has deep experience managing the most sensitive matters in America, the safety and soundness of the Markets, and over 10 Trillion Dollars at Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, a substantial increase from where it was just 12 months ago.” – President Donald Trump

Trump initially hinted Pulte would be his permanent choice, but after pushback from within his own party, he backed off that commitment. He claimed Pulte wouldn’t want to make that type of commitment anyway.

7. DOJ ENDS TRUMP’S LAWFARE FUND – The Department of Justice under acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has announced plans to cancel the “anti-weaponization” fund aimed at compensating Americans who had been politically prosecuted by the Biden administration. The President also recently indicated he would select Blanche to become the Senate confirmed Attorney General nominee.
8. ALABAMA REDISTRICTING UPHELD BY SCOTUS – The Supreme Court of the United States has upheld a recent redistricting map from the Alabama GOP that will eliminate the sole “majority-black” district. The ruling is another gerrymandering wars win for the GOP.
9. APPEALS COURT PREVENTS TRANS TROOP REMOVAL – A U.S. Court of Appeals of DC panel ruled 2-1 that the President could not remove currently serving trans members of the military. The ruling also concluded the President could continue prohibiting trans people from joining. The response from the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, was “See you at SCOTUS.”
10. GOP HOUSE PASSES RESOLUTION TO END IRAN WAR – The U.S. House voted 215 to 208 on a resolution to end the Iran War. The resolution passed with the help of four Republicans who crossed the aisle to vote against their party’s President. The vote is symbolic as it most likely would not pass the Senate, and it certainly wouldn’t be signed into law by the President.

HEADLINES MISSED

1. GOLD CONQUERS U.S. TREASURIES – The world’s top reserve asset is no longer US Treasuries, it’s gold, and that rally is being led by China, with Poland, Kazakhstan, and Brazil joining in the gold buying frenzy.
2. TRUMP DOWNPLAYS CHINA’S ANTI-DATA CENTER AGIT PROP CAMPAIGN IN AMERICA – President Trump told the press at a White House event he does not think China is engaging in agit prop campaigning to drive Americans to not support AI Data Centers. His response suggested even if China could do such a thing, it wouldn’t be effective.
3. TRUMP’S EUROPE RETREAT APPEARS TO BE REVERSING – After President Trump had signaled the U.S. might scale back its military presence in Europe, he is now signaling both continued troop rotations AND increases in nuclear weapons deployment.
4. DID POLAND CRACK OPEN THE GAY MARRIAGE DOOR? – Poland’s Catholic Bishops are warning a recent court ruling recognizing foreign gay marriages will undermine Poland’s constitution, which strictly forbids it.
5. U.S. CLAIMS SOMALIA SOVEREIGN OVER SOMALILAND – President Trump has decided to not recognize the sovereignty of the state of Somaliland. The administration went further in a report from the State Department claiming the U.S. recognizes Somalia as having sovereignty over Somaliland. The report also claims the U.S. is open to cooperating with Somaliland on security issues.

PEOPLE ADVANCE REPORT

1. TINA PETERS FREED – “I know that the Democrats are going to cheat. No one’s really addressing the problem that I spent my time in prison as retribution for, and that was exposing the election machines that allow the votes to be flipped. I’m very concerned and burdened with why no one is talking about this.” – Tina Peters, Election Fraud Whistleblower, after being released from prison. She had been locked up for 20 months.
2. DON LEMON CATCHES FEDERAL CHARGES – After the city of Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota failed to prosecute progressive state activist Don Lemon, the Federal government has stepped in. He will face numerous Federal charges after the city AG claimed there was insufficient evidence.
3. VA PROSECUTORS REJECT PROGRESSIVE GUN LAWS – A growing number of Virginia prosecutors have declared they will not enforce the recent spate of gun control laws passed by the newly elected Progressive government. The number is up to 13 but is expected to rise.
4. BOLTON PLEADS GUILTY – Donald Trump’s former National Security advisor, John Bolton, will reportedly plea guilty to classified document handling charges. Bolton was an avid detractor of Trump who initially called the charges political.
5. HUMAN MEMORY STORAGE EXPLODES IN ASTROCYTES – A brain cell previously believed to be, at best, a support cell, has turned out to be a source for human memory storage that exponentially exceeds previous models. That brain cell is called an astrocyte. The discovery was made by a team at MIT.
